The Bosch HQA534BS3B is a Series 4 built in single oven with an added steam function that helps you cook juicier roasts, crustier bread and better reheated meals. It is part of the current Bosch promotion at S&D Ireland.
Standard fit, generous space
The HQA534BS3B is a standard 60cm built in oven, 595mm high, 594mm wide and 548mm deep, so it suits most fitted kitchens. Retailers list the cavity at 71 litres, enough for a large turkey or several trays of food at once. The stainless steel finish, pop out knobs and touch control with a red LED display give it a clean, modern look.
Added steam made simple
To use the steam function, you pour around 250ml of water into the bowl in the oven floor and select HotAir Steam. The oven releases bursts of steam as it cooks with the fan, keeping meat moist, giving bread a crisp crust and reheating leftovers without drying them out. There is no water tank to fill or plumb in, which keeps the design simple.
Eight cooking functions
Alongside HotAir Steam, the oven offers 3D Hotair for even cooking on up to three levels, HotAir Gentle, HotAir Grilling, a full width variable grill, conventional top and bottom heat, bottom heat and a pizza setting. That covers almost any recipe, from Sunday roasts to homemade pizza. The oven carries an A+ energy rating, and a control panel lock prevents settings being changed by accident.
Easier cleaning
An EcoClean Direct coating on the back panel absorbs grease as you cook, and the hydrolytic cleaning setting uses water and gentle heat to loosen dirt on the enamel so it wipes away easily. Telescopic rails are available as an optional accessory if you want smoother access to heavy trays.
Our verdict
The Bosch HQA534BS3B brings the benefits of steam cooking to a standard built in oven without complicated plumbing. Eight functions, even 3D Hotair results and easy cleaning make it a versatile, well built choice, and it is part of the current promotion.
